Abstract
A method for manufacturing a mirror surface tube for a photosensitive drum of a copying machine or the like, by which an external surface of an aluminium or aluminium alloy tube can be mirror-processed with high accuracy without surface defects, and in such a way that good quality required for a photosensitive drum is ensured and dimension accuracy, such as roundness, and production yield is improved involves a first step in which an aluminium or aluminium alloy tube, finished in a predetermined shape and dimension with surface roughness of 10 microns or less, is processed by a centerless grinding process. Then, in a second step, a grinding process is performed using an electrolytic integrated polishing apparatus including a tool electrode mechanism having an elastic grindstone so as to make a mirror surface tube having the surface roughness of 2.0 microns or less. Further, preferably, in a third stage, a roller burnishing process is performed to finish the tube to a surface roughness of 0.5 microns or less.
